Cleaning & Laundry - October 2007

I happily like how my tops fit so I typically don't dry them. Which would be okay if I didn't have pets and randomly collect pet hair on them. The shirts I do dry are cat hair free out of the dryer. Is there any setting I can safely dry my clothes to just get rid of the hair? I'm not too worried about the actual drying aspect, just to get the hair off. :/ Please help. :]

We had a bottle fall to the floor and, though it was cleaned immediately, the grout between the tiles has gone from white to nearly black. Anyone ever find a solution for this?

These jeans have probably been washed 5 times, but every time they get washed and dried, they end up wrinkled regardless of how fast I take them out of the dryer. I was them in cold and dry perm press. Any thoughts?

My son left a metal tool box on a carpet for quite some time, now I`m left with quite a rusty area of carpet.
Does anyone know of a magic potion, please.

Our oven shut of while cooking, it made a POOF noise and went off and will not come back on.

Can anyone recommend a cleaning agent (UK only) to get rid of ground-in dirt stains. It's not for me, it's for someone else (honest).

I'm washing the shower curtain, can I throw the liner in the wash too? Will it melt in the dryer?

My mom said that she would give me money if I did work around the house. I'm too young to get a job so I guess I will do it this way.

Here are the jobs I'm already doing:

1. Vacuuming
2. Clean windows/door
3. Clean Poop Pans
4. Walk the Door

Anymore you can think of?? I'm trying to buy something so I need many jobs to do, it stinks but whatever.

Im seriously running out of clothes. My knees are freezing because i couldnt find a single pair of long pants in my drawer and i didnt have any socks either so my feet are freezing too. Ive also been wearing the same shirt for 4 days! When i ask my mom if she can do more laundry she just yells at me saying she does 1000 pounds a day. If thats true then why is the laundry shoot filled to the top? So I want to start doing laundry so i can actually wear stuff thats warm and doesnt stink but I have no idea how. Like what do i put the buttons on were do i put detergent and how long i put them in. Help!

Someone recently bought me a beautiful, very expensive comforter (costs like $200). I love it to pieces, but its dry clean only unfortunately. :( I didn't realise it was dry clean only until just the other day and I had already run it through the wash once along with its pillow shams.
I almost never put things in the dryer, so I let it air dry in my laundry room.

I contacted my local dry cleaner and it costs $20 to dry clean a comforter and I don't have the money to do that 2 times a month. I like to wash my comforter, pillow shams, and sheets every two weeks.
I bought a "dryel" kit, but its too small for my comforter but the pillow shams fit in it.
How bad is it if I run my comforter through the wash and let it hang dry? Are there any alternatives to bringing it to the cleaners?

We have found in this last week small round holes in our cotton underwear and one pair of socks. This is underwear that is worn and washed every week but is relatively new. We have found no other holes in any other clothes at this time. Not sure what might be causing it. Moths, poor quality material, too much washing detergent or something in the washing drum causing damage to the clothes?

I cut my hand while I was drunk and didn't realise. I got a bit of blood on the white areas of my windrunner/windbreaker and my grey hoody. The blood has been on for about 15 hours or so, how can I remove it?

I recently bought a blanket for my bed and noticed when I got home the package said "do not use fabric softener" but doesn't say why not, I don't use fabric softener anyway but was wondering why it might harm the blanket.
